This is my third book (published April 7th 2020). This file is a downloadable pdf. The book includes:
A risk-assessment list for teachers who are involved in online teaching (contains some not-so-obvious things to be aware of)
Tips for teachers when using social media
A list of 100 apps teachers can use for online learning, with advice on how how each one can be used.
Review on Amazon.com, April 17th 2020:
100 Awesome Online Learning Apps is actually quite an AWESOME book. The book is very timely and significant. It lists 100 different apps and divide them in four sub groups,
Communication & Collaboration
Creation
Constructing knowledge
Assessment and Feedback
This helps the book easier to navigate as per your needs. The description of each app is kept crisp and to the point. The author does not bore you with unnecessary details and just sticks to recording what it offers and it’s benefits. The whole world has turned to online teaching during these crazy times and it can be very difficult to decide on which app to use for what. One app may suit best for communication while another suits best for evaluation. This book from an experienced teacher and Google Certified educator comes as a relief and helps you decide. Best thing is both students and educators can use this for their benefit. Very useful and helpful.
